It is important to understand the basis of slavery. It started with the subjugation of one gender by laws. The laws influenced the naming of the genders to fit the laws of subjugation.
In 2400BCE Manu of the Hindi put Sloka V into law - the subjugation of one gender to the other.
1000 years later 'God' was given the name E-manu-el, meaning the manu in us.
1000 years after god was named Emanuel the Romans put The Manus into law: the authoritative control of the husband over the wife. From this we can trace - Manu - Emanuel - Manus back 4000 years. Patriarchy, slavery and feudalism went on for 4000 years to about 1850ACE.
Language developed with these laws and social systems in mind. The name man, from Manu , means male slave. W-o-man is wife-of-slave. Males who were not slaves were Lords.
Today it is belief that "man consists of man and woman as humans" In an earlier post I showed this to be false. These are not names based in reality. They are based in patriarchal ideology, rule and control by Lords.
Solution: change the names to be true-to-reality. I show how this is done in my book An Inconvenient Lie. http://www.inconvenientlie.ca/
